PON2 Deficiency Leads to Increased Susceptibility to Diet-Induced Obesity. [PDF]
, 2019 (1) Background: Paraoxonase 2 (PON2) is a ubiquitously expressed protein localized to endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. Previous studies have shown that PON2 exhibits anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory functions, and PON2-deficient (PON2-def) mice ...

Effect of FSH on testicular morphology and spermatogenesis in gonadotrophin-deficient hypogonadal mice lacking androgen receptors [PDF]
, 2010 Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) and androgen act to stimulate and maintain spermatogenesis. FSH acts directly on the Sertoli cells to stimulate germ cell number and acts indirectly to increase androgen production by the Leydig cells.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2006 When females are sexually promiscuous, the ejaculates of different males may compete for the fertilization of a set of ova, a process known as sperm competition. In internally fertilizing species, potential for sperm competition occurs whenever the ejaculates of different males cooccur in the female reproductive tract at the time of ovulation.

An interleukin-33/ST2 signaling deficiency reduces overt pain-like behaviors in mice [PDF]
, 2013 Interleukin (IL)-33, the most recent member of the IL family of cytokines, signals through the ST2 receptor. IL-33/ST2 signaling mediates antigen challenge-induced mechanical hyperalgesia in the joints and cutaneous tissues of immunized mice. The present
